WHAT TO EXPECT:
When a person calls our counseling center, he or she is connected with a receptionist who is caring, compassionate and aims to dispel any fears, uncertainty and doubts that they may have. Our goal is to schedule you with a counselor as quickly as possible as we understand that your needs are high priority.
YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT:
At your first appointment we will take a copy of your insurance card (if applicable) and give you a few forms to fill out. This will aid us in determining your initial needs and goals for counseling. Caring staff will help you to understand your feelings, what treatment options are available and what to expect from our sessions. Also, you will be given answers about your insurance benefit coverage and payment arrangements.
POLICIES AND PROCEDURES:
Please read our Non-discrimination Policy. It is the policy of Access Counseling to provide service to all eligible persons without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, height, weight, marital or familial status, disability, service in the uniformed services, or any other characteristic protected by law and without regard to sexual orientation.
MINORS POLICY: (Ages 5 to 18)
We expect a responsible adult to accompany all minor children to the agency and to remain on site during their child’s appointment, if the child is under the age of 18 years. On occasion, a parent/guardian’s signature is needed at the appointment time. Our counselor's work closely with RFISD and will provide school excuses if needed.

The charge for the initial visit is $30 payable with cash or a debit/credit card. Clients covered by Medicaid are not charged for the initial visit. After the first visit, the charge for clients with insurance will be dependent on their deductible. For those clients who choose not to use insurance or are not covered by insurance, a generous income based sliding fee scale is available. Proof of family income is required from the client.
